Get List Element
Tool to retrieve a specific element from a metadata list by type and ID. Use when you need to fetch detailed information about a specific list element such as locations, products, or other metadata objects.
Why this helps
A specific product, location, or customer record can take several clicks to find when all you have is its identifier.
- Retrieve one specified metadata element by type and ID.
- Use an existing record reference from an Ably-connected process.
- Reduce manual searching for individual list records.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ably and Datascope once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Tell Notis to retrieve the Datascope list element matching the type and ID supplied in the request, then present its details.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real element ID from a list in Datascope.

What details must the request include?
Include the metadata list type and the element ID. The action uses both to retrieve the specified element.
Can this find an element if I only know its name?
The available action is described as a lookup by type and ID. A name-only lookup is not specified.
